Monotone circuit depth conjecture: The minimum depth of a monotone circuit for computing certain monotone functions. Karchmer-Wigderson (1988) connected depth to communication complexity. Exact lower bounds for specific functions (clique) are open.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions.
